should be unmipdful Of time when an
abused and irritstad people, needless ct
those who have resisted timely and reason
able relief, may insist on q radical and
sweeping specification Of wrongs. The Diff
ficulty attending wise and fair revision Of
our tariff laws is not underestimated. II
will require on the part of congress
great labor and care and especially broad
and national contemplation of the subject,
and a patriotic disregard or such local and
selfish claims as are unreasonable and reck-
less of the welfare of the entire country.
Under ouripresent laws more than fonl
thousand articles are subject to duty. Many
of these do not in any way compete with our
manufacturers, and many are hardly worth
attention as subjects of revenue. A consid-
cradle reduction can be made In the aggre-
gate by adding them to the free list. The
taxation of Injuries presents no features OF
hardship, but the necessaries of life, used and
consumed by all the people, the duty upon
which adds to the cost of living in every
home, should be greatly cheapened. The
radical reduction of the duties imposed upon
raw material used in manufactures, or its
free importation, is of course an import

The Bulletin de la Ceramique points
out that the theory enunciated by NJ.
De Gran d Fury is opposed to the idea
that large trees and shrubs produced
coal; and in further support thereof it
is stated that the carboniferous flora
consisted of plants deficient in snb-
stances necessary for producing coal
the Investigation of M. CASTOR de Sa-
porta on this point indicating that this
vegetation consisted of relatively thin
circle of wood and of a large quantity
of a softer substance. Brogniart and
Ellie de Beaumont attribute the fOrma-
ton of coal to the transformation of
the close herbaceouS vegetation which
surrounded the larger forest trees and
plants. Similar opinions have been eX-
pressed by NJ Pouchet and other saw
ants; so that NJ Gran d Fury has more
or less eminent authorities for his state
ment that Il calculation of the accumu-
lation of trees, etc, necessary for the
conversion into even thin coal bed of
lblCob oAt'iNtIily bNllCN WdtCl,
or gradually letting its residue gather
on the ground, leads to an evidently err
roneous result, so greatly is it neces-
sary to exaggerate either the mass of
vegetable matter or the duration of the
process of coal formation. Even adj
hitting for moment that coal is pro-
duced by the decomposition of trees
NJ Gran d. Fury asks how it can be
maintained that wood, in losing its
moisture, has become liquid. Wood is
known to contain good deal of water,
and coal only traces of it. While he re-
CARDS it as certain that coal was at one
time liquid, and gradually assumed a
solid shape, he considers that coal beds
were formerly beds of naptha and btu
minous petroleum, produced by the de-
composition of inferior aquatic vegeta-
ton under the influence of heat and
dampness. AS proof of this asser-
ton, hequotes the fact that the porous
minerals found at the bottom of coal
pits areimpregnated in their pores with
naptha.

Thomas Jefferson, toward the close

looking after his estate during many

her first ride in sleeping-car. She

she replied that there was man under

Something About Amsterdam.

AS people the Dutch are not hand
some. There are handsome types, but
they have come in with Flemish inn
migrations or by accidental admixture
with some of the blonde tribes of north
Germany. They are evidently not the
old Batavians recognized in history 100
years before the Christian era, and, by
a singular persistence of descent, per-
petuated till the present day. This
perseverance of ancient types through
thousands of years of pestilence, of
submergence, of desolating wars, of
internecine contests, of successive i'm
migrations, is one of the marvels of
history. The Flemish type is charac-
terized by length of nose, breadth of
forehead, smallness of chin and short
ness of face. The true Dutch type has
length of nose, narrowness of forehead,
thinness of feature, gauntness of body
and often considerable length of limb.
These details are subject to modifca-
lions. The types more nearly approach
ing it are those often seen in Denmark.
You can wander for days through
the streets. museums and public places
of Amsterdam, Harlem, The Hague
and Rotterdam and not meet hand
some woman, young or old, unless she
is foreigner. The climate, like that
of Boston, proves more trying to the
gentler sex. This absence of personal
attractiveness in young women and
girls is not without certain pathos.
The faces of old women become thin
as blade, the nose sharp as a needle,
the complexion preternaturally clear
and white. There is no room for
wrinkles on a surface so small and
thin. Surmount this queer face with
one of the close fitting, white native
caps, and put about it quantity of
the curious gold ornaments of the
country, and you have a personal en-
semble to be remembered.-Hollan

Have you noticed what we've

Not so much more space but
more stuff. You're not likely
to ask for what we haven't got
in Rubber things. Some of the
cheapest gossamers have no
rubber about them. We sell
cheap gossamers-men's, wo-
mems, misses and boys, $3.50
to S3.5o-but not the cheap-in-
value no-rubber kind. Good
rubber in our cheapest, but not
pure. Even the film of silvery,
frosty rubber over the higher
cost garments is not perfectly
pure. Serves its purpose bet
ter not to be. Picking out and

es of some of the best of these
